Therefore,
Carbon atoms are bonded with other carbon atoms by a single covalent bond in
(b)
Interpretation: To determine the functional group change that occurs in step 2 of a turn of the
Concept introduction: The
Functional groups are defined as the group of atoms which are attached to the carbon backbone of organic compounds. These are generally heteroatoms which are attached to the parent hydrocarbon chain. Some examples of functional groups are as follows:
Here, R and
Alkanes are saturated hydrocarbons that contain covalently bonded hydrogen and carbon atoms. In secondary alcohol, the carbon atom of the hydroxyl group
